    Hi,

    I tried updating my graphics card with drivers off the AMD website since that is where I always get told to go when I inquire about updating them. I used the auto-detect feature to find out which drivers needed to be installed. I downloaded and installed but during the installation my laptop blue screened. This has happened four times now and an error message always pops up saying that "There is no AMD card installed". What am I to do since the Dell drivers are way out of date?

    Any help appreciated.
